Dust


Sydney is experiencing a dust storm this morning whipped up by strong winds which has reduced visibility significantly and left me, an asthmatic, with an irritated gritty feeling in my mouth although I have not yet stepped outside my apartment.

The light, first thing this morning, was an eerie red and then yellow.

The forecast is for the dust to clear during the day. I hope it happens soon.
